Currently Supported Importer Formats
The OMERO.importer uses the LOCI bio-formats library to support a number of formats. Please note however that we try to extensively test each file format before we add it to the importer, so our success depends on how much test data we have.
As always, contributions of sample data will help to ensure that the OMERO.importer accurately supports a wide range of formats, and any contributions you may wish to make are always welcome by contacting us at:

This is a very open standard, so expect a few variant types to be unsupported. We do however do extensive tiff testing so the format is generally well supported. |

Image format supported. Image format not supported. Image format normally supported but bugged in this version.1. Since this format contains no metadata, the importer will use default values for the pixel size and channel meta data.
